Sports Bra Hunting - part 2

Enell sports bra 34D (label 0)/BlackYou remember my sports bra woes. Well, one friend posted on the blog about Enell Sports Bras for full-figured women. I checked it out, got my measurements and ordered one. It finally came in the mail last week.

I bought the black one so it wouldn't look so much like a regular bra poking through my running shirts.

I must say -- the bra fits very snugly. The girls don't move ANYwhere with this bra on. I actually had to unsnap the bottom two clasps because I couldn't take deep breaths and it was poking into my rib cage. Once I did that, it fit fine. The girls didn't move anywhere when I ran. And my silhouette still looks nice underneath my tank tops - not just flattened down as if I duct taped myself.

Two thumbs up for Enell.

Sports Bra Hunting


Over the years, I've learned that affordable sports bras are not often constructed for shapely women. The bra is either too tight with resulting spillage from the top... or the bra fits the twins, but is too loose around the bottom making a huge gap where they can fall in and get stuck. Or even worse, the bra fits, but provides less control than a regular bra.

I went on a hunt recently for a device to tie the twins down with all this new running I'm doing. The salesgirl gave me a strange look as I explained my shapely girl woes (see above). She suggested I check out the Champion line, and if not, to try Lane Bryant (??).

Of course, the Champion sports bras only went up to a C-cup. But, I have been stuffing the girls into the Champion C9 Sports Bra for a week and it is way more comfortable than any of the five other sports bras I own. Oh, how did I forget? And it was only $16.99 -- So, two thumbs up for Champion!
